Now and then a girl becomes an ac
tual bollo,iJEUa pwu was actually a
bello. She was very hand.somo and the
only child of -millionaire. She dress
ed perfectly, and bad everr pos-siblo ac
conipltshniont. (When she entered a room she some
how threw all the other girls into sha
dow. A crowd " gathered about her
chair, and recognizod beauties pouted
in indignation at their neglect
Whether she would have been so much
admired bad she not boon an heiress, it
would have boon hard to say; but sho
bad had, on an average, twenty offers of
marriage since she "came out," and had
not yet accepted any one as her chose a
husband, though she was tliree-aud-twenty.
Perhaps the pleasure she took
in her bellehoou was too groat
At last, however, almost on her twenty-fourth
birthday, she met Mr. , Evan
l'luntagauot a young exquisite of the.
testhotie type and urged on by his moth
er and all his many Bisters, engaged
herself to him with her father's con
sent. When she did this, one young heart
ached sorely that of hor faraway cousin
Roderick Blair, a physician, new-fledged,
who lived with nis mother in a pretty
country town in Devonshire. He paled
and mbped, and his mother knew well
what troubled him.
"Whv did vou never speak to Ella?"
she said, "flow do vou snow ahe could
not have liked you?''
"She was too rich mother," said Rod
erick gloomily. 'I could not seem tc
be a fortune-hunter. I would not owe
go much to a wife."
"Not If she loved you?" askod th
mother.
Rut tho sontrould have no more talk
about the matter. The girl never could
have been his. He himself did not un
derstand why ho should feci more un
happy than before- Terhaps it was bo
cause, as his mother said, he did noi
know but that she might have likee
him.
And Sir. Evan Plantaganet exhibited
his prize in public, aud ids mother arte
isters boasted of his engagement to "tin
daughter of Mr. Lowe, the well-knowi
millionaire."
Suddenly there came a crash; a start
ling piece of news petrified the fashion
able world. It was uttered by every
tongun, and published in every news
paper. The millionaire Lowe had embarked
in speculation, and his millions were
gone.
-i The great house was closed. Mr.
Lowe and his daughter went to live on
an upper floor, in a plain stroet,and the
mother of Evan Plantagauet declared
herself shocked at the old man's decep
tion. In fact the young man himseli
was horrified at the situation of his pros
pective fv''Mn-law and having drawl
ed out nnndry reproaches, was ottered
his freedom, which he took at once.
Ella was free, and poor. Roderick
Blair, In his country home, heard the
news. A few hours "afterwards he was at
Mr. Lowe's door.
u fmiwl Ella as britrht as ever; in
fact she had long since grown weary ot
Plantaganet and his affections. She
wore a pretty dress and smiled and
chatted gaily. The humble rooms were
pleasant and well-arranired. Novel
had Roderick passed a ple'asanter even
ing. He returned homo full of hope
aud "happiness.
But though he felt himself honored by
the privilege of visiting in that humble
abode, most of Elia'a admirers, and all
her fashionable lady friends, but three,
gradually dropped' her. She was no
lonjer a'bclle.
When be accepted an Invitation ulie
found herself treated like other girls.
The lesson was salutary. If her vanity
was hurt, her good sense was improv
ed. One pleasant winter day she accepted
the hand of Roderick Bla'ir. It might
be a long engagement, for both were
poor; but they trusted each other.
Meanwhile Mrs. Blair was delighted.
She came down often and brougnt all
the village news.' Amongst other things
a description of the splendid new house
a rich man, whose name she did not
know, was building on tho very next

oughly well appointed In even- wav and
it was now being furnished from roof to
basement in the mot elegant manner.
, .The. furnishing did not come at tiret, of
course. Indeed, it took six months to
arrive nt that point And a stained
glass window In the hall, and a conser
vatory thoroughly stocked, brought the
old lady down on a special visit.
. Mr. Lowe was always interested in her
account of the place.
..I , , i .....
i snouiu line to see n, no said. "I
will comn up with ' Ella next Monday,
and, no doubt, I mav got permission to
go through it with you."
'Delightful!" said Mrs. Blair. "I
adore handsome houses."
Ella smiled; aud the result was that
tho following Monday, Mr.Lowe, heartv
and happy ns In hi palmiest diirs, o.
fured his arm to Mrs. Blair, and leaving
the young pooplo to follow, escorted her
from hor own quiet homo to tho elegant
now mansion. , , r
The man who was carefully polishing
the stone porch opened the door for hhu
and all four entered. ' i ;u
Certainly a handsomer andyet a moro
home-liko house, could tot nave boon
found in nil England.
Mrs. Blair was in raptures.
Roderick, looking down at Ella, aid:
"My dear, I wish I could give vou
such ft homo;" and she answered:
"Ah, Roderick. I wish I could bring
buuu a homo with mo when I cotuc to
yon.1'
Mr. Lowe heard and paused with a
smile. 1
"Say you go, children?" lie cricd.

It seemed a witticism, at which tliey
all laughed, and they went homo togeth
er, happy and friendly, and took tea iu
the widow's cottage.
' .After tho meal wtw over, Mr. Lowe
onoe moro brought up the mibiuutof the

And he took his daughter away, wrap-

Again the millionaire Lowe , was a
nine days' wonder in the city. ' -Again
the fashionable world offered its invita
tions, and Evan Plantaganet's mothet
went to call on dear Ella, and toll her
how 'Tlantaganet regretted the misun
derstanding;" but she found a wedding
party assembled in the little parlor and
discovered that Ella had been Mrs. Blair
for nearly half an hour. . . She had self
possession enough to present her con
gratulations, and retire speedily.
Sho was not wanted, and the late
belle quito understood what had brought
her there. For her part, she was hap
pier than she had been in those days ol
adulation and flattery, tnd would not
have changed her true and loving hus
band for all hor train of admirers, for
all the hollow world ' could offer. And
yet she was glad to bring Roderick a
fortune as well as a heart, and he knew
her too well now to be glad also, If only
for her sake.

Buttons. .,,
"Button, button, who Has, the but
ton?" asked a glove that had been drop
ped on the toilet-table. ;
'I've got it," answered Jimmy Jacket
"I've several buttons, in fact"
"No," put in the closet-door, "I have
it mvsf If; the carpenter gave i to me."
"I hud a dozen or so,' said a boot,
looking rather down at the bool. :
"And I have a hundred; or more."
yawned the easy-chaif, "but thfT don't
button anything; they don' t ' belong to
the working class.".
"Hero's a bachelor's button," remark
ed a vase of flowers oq the .bureau.
"There's a button-wood tree in the
garden," said the button-hooker. "I.
suppose yon all grew there.";' ' k

"And wc," added a pair of Jvory
sleeve-buttotiH, "we grew in the land of
the whim' elephant. We were carved
from the tusks of tho leader, who thread
ed the jungles and swam the rivers at
the head of his troops."
"My buttons," auid the glove, "were
nearly related to the gem which Cle
opatra dissolved for Anthony, They
were mot her-of-penrl, grown in the shell
of tho pearl ovster, lor which divers
risk their lives." ; ,.
"That's something of a fish Itory.'.'i
thought Jimmy's jacket "My button

made of Hand, and who knows but their

the Hcii-Bhoro from 'farthest India' " .
"And I," whispered the bachelor'

Inferior in intellectual ability to Web
ster, Clay or Calhoun, Thomas Hart
Benton had no superior as a man of iron
will and haughty disposition, during the
twenty-nine years and seven months that
he served continuously in the United
States Senate. ' Aggressive,' bold and de
fiant, he tyould occasionally strike nut
recklessly at everything ana everybody
about him, like the huge wild buffaloes
of the Missouri prairies, treading his op
ponents beneath his feet 'in his angry
rush. - His greatest display 'of ungove'1'
.able rage In the Senate chamber waa
when, in an angry debate, he advanced
with threatening gestures toward Sena
tor Foote, of Mississippi, who, fearing
that ho was to be attacked, drew a small
pocket-pistol. The sight of this weapon
made Benton uncontrollable, and, en
deavoring to shake off the grasp of
friends who seized him, he shouted:
"The cowardly assassin, let him shoot
roe if he dares. 1 never carry arms, and
he knows it- Let the assassin fire!",
After quiet was somewhat restored.Clay
suggested that both Senators should en'
ter into bonds to keep the peace, upon
which Benton arose and exclaimed: "I
will rot in lail, air before I will do itl
No, sir! I will rot in jail first!" and he
proceeded to, pour" forth a torrent of
bitter infective on Foote before he could
be quieted. Even when he was defeated
in seeking a re-election for the sixth
time in the Senate, and was forced to
accept a seat in the House of Represen
tatives, Benton failed to display a
chastened ambition or a softened heart
